[Brandon's mom:] The group will need to create a design for a t-shirt. I'm sure the teachers intend for this to be more than just all agreeing to wear a blue shirt. Check with Mrs. Burris. For design, you can use fabric paints to paint on t-shirts (shirts of any color), or you can create a design on the computer by grabbing images and adding text and then print it onto iron-on t-shirt transfers.  Please discuss with the group.

Add you comments here://Mariam: We'll have starfit blue t-shirts from walmart or target. then, on the front, we'll add iron on letters that spell out chios (obviously) and we'll put our own handprints on it. on the back, we'll have a special number that we chose ourselves, and our greek nick name (for example my nick name is Athena!)

I bought royal blue t-shirts for everyone. What color letters do you all want for "CHIOS"?  What color for your nicknames?  What color paint do you want for the handprint?

 +
Gold letters will be very hard to find and won't show up very well against the royal blue. I would recommend WHITE.

[brandon] lol. The painting on Monday will take some time, because we will have to do multiple layers of paint and different colors. So we will probably be playing a lot of lasertag, nerf tag, etc. Mariam, bring your brother's nerf gun and any darts he has on Monday. And Grant, we're not purposely setting dates you can't come to, you just have a really tight schedule. We'll try and work that in (intergrate). Im just happy your not Grant Haley. His schedule's a nightmare. He has no free time. I'd go CRAAAAAZZZYYY! And Grant, yes I know you think I already am, but lets try not to diss eachother on the Wiki |:-]
 
Again, make sure to bring your swimsuits on Monday. I'm planning a special party at the end of the Greek unit with you guys just to come over and swim, climb, etc. I still need permission, but Im hoping everyone can. We'll try extra-special hard to get everyone there ;)

The group will paint the chariot, let it dry, and then apply any stickers you want. suggestions - "flames" on the side and the word, "CHIOS" letter stickers on the back.
